    Meng Zitao said with a smile: "Don't you know there is an old saying, a little makes a lot? Besides, think about it, there are so many people in our country, as long as each of us gives me one dollar, I can become a billionaire  Rich man, isn¡¯t that true?¡±

    "Profiteer, you will know you are a profiteer at a glance!"

    Li Xianle laughed and scolded: "Okay, come and help me see if the things are correct. If there is no problem with the things, I will give you a big red envelope when you open the business."

    Meng Zitao wiped his hands: "Then you have to take out the things. How can I see it if you don't take it?"

    Li Xianle quickly took the things out of the box and said with a smile: "How is it? The things are good, aren't they?"

    "Gourd bottle?" Meng Zitao asked in surprise.

    The gourd vase is named after its shape, which resembles a gourd. Since the Tang Dynasty, it has been loved by the people because of its homophony of "Fu Lu". It was especially popular during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty.  In addition to the traditional utensil shape, there are also utensil shapes with a round upper part and a lower part.

    During the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, it became one of the varieties of porcelain exported. The shape of the vessel was taller than that of the Ming Dynasty, and three-section or four-section bottles appeared.  After Yongzheng, one-hole gourd vases were created, with many variations. Among them, the one with a restrained mouth, lying feet, and symmetrical Ruyi ribbons and ears evolved into "Ruyi Zun".

    The gourd vase in front of you has a round upper part and a lower part. The upper part of the gourd is painted with a lotus pattern, and each side of the gourd is a character pattern.

    Li Xianle said with a proud look on his face: "Yes, the blue and white figure gourd vase with floral patterns was made in the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty. I think it is an old thing from the beginning."

    Meng Zitao shook his head secretly and said: "Since you think you are an old guy who knows the way, why did you bring it over to show me?"

    Li Xian laughed happily and said, "I've already contacted my next employer, and I'll come and check it out for you to make sure it's safe."

    Meng Zitao said: "You are fast enough, but you have to know that my eyesight for porcelain is limited. Why don't you get it from Uncle Wang to be safer? In other words, you are not afraid that I will see it wrong."  Already?"

    Li Xianle smiled and said: "I think you have good eyesight. Besides, aren't we cash-strapped now?"

    ¡°You can just say you want to use me as free labor.¡±

    Meng Zitao smiled and shook his head, then took the gourd bottle in his hand and looked at it carefully. After ten minutes, he put the bottle back expressionlessly.

    Seeing that Meng Zitao was silent, Li Xianle became anxious: "My shopkeeper Meng Da, how is this thing? You should hurry up and say something."

    "Squeak."

    Li Xianle said dumbfounded: "I said, please stop playing with me, I'm almost dying of anxiety."

    "Didn't I already answer you?" Meng Zitao said.

    "What you call an answer is obviously for application" At this point, Li Xianle reacted: "You mean, there is something wrong with my gourd bottle? This is impossible. Look at the shape, glaze, green material,  Painting skills or style knowledge, which one has the problem?"

    Meng Zitao said helplessly: "Brother Li, I usually see you are quite smart, why are you acting like a fool now?"

    "A fool?" Li Xianle was startled and said, "I told you to make it clear. Even if I'm going to die, I have to die clearly, right?"

    Meng Zitao asked: "Let me ask you, what is the figure painting on your gourd bottle?"

    "It should be the Eight Immortals" Li Xianle gradually came to his senses.

    "What about the four immortals?" Meng Zitao asked.

    "Or maybe I was negligent at the time?" Li Xianle stammered, and after a while, he was covered in white hair and sweat.

    Meng Zitao sneered: "Hey! Neglect, do you believe this?"

    Li Xianle was still reluctant to give up: "But why does everything about this thing seem to be right?"

    Meng Zitao said: "You already have the answer in your heart, and you still come to ask me? Is this just a piece of splicing? Use a magnifying glass to look at the joint in the middle of the gourd bottle."

    As he said that, he put the magnifying glass on the table. Li Xianle quickly took it into his hand and started looking at it. The more he looked at it, the paler his face became.

    Meng Zitao shook his head, yes, this thing is indeed well spliced, but in the final analysis, this is Li Xianle's own problem. If he hadn't been greedy, how could he not even see this flaw.

    After a long time, Li Xianle came back to his senses and sighed: "Hey, as the old saying goes, it's your own fault that makes you miserable. I really brought it upon myself!"

    Meng Zitao patted him on the shoulder: "Anyway, that thing of yours is an imitation from the Republic of China period, and it's not worth much. If you have a good idea, it's a blessing in disguise."It is Jiajiang paper 'made in Dafengtang'.  "

    Speaking of this, he told everyone the origin of Jiajiang paper "made in Dafengtang".

    In the summer and autumn of 1939, Zhang Daqian, who was living in the capital of Shu, was eager to raise funds to go to Dunhuang and prepare paper and paint.  Little did they know that in the huge city of Chengdu, rice paper for painting could not be purchased.

    It turns out that the rice paper used at that time had its source cut off due to the war of aggression against China.  At that time, this famous painter in his prime couldn't help but sigh: "In ancient times, paper was expensive and could be bought in Luoyang, but now you can't buy drawing paper with money; if you don't have paper, you may not ask me to go to Dunhuang to drink the northwest wind!"  "

    One day, he suddenly saw a newspaper advertisement, which stated that due to the shortage of paper during the war, newspapers and periodicals must be printed on local paper.

    The so-called "local paper" is a kind of handmade paper produced in Jiajiang.  Zhang Daqian bought some native paper and tried it at home, but the ink printing and pen-handling effects were not ideal.

    He wondered: Can Jiajiang rice paper be improved and produced into a rice paper suitable for both writing and painting?  Later, he asked his close friend Yan Jiyuan to discuss the matter.  After discussion, the two decided that it was feasible and decided to go to Jiajiang for on-the-spot investigation.

    Later, after many experiments, Zhang Daqian finally produced the paper he wanted, which is now Jiajiang traditional Chinese painting paper.  In order to prevent others from imitating his paintings, Zhang Daqian ingeniously asked craftsmen to weave "Shu Jian" in the center of the paper curtain and "Made in Dafengtang" on both ends.

    As long as the rice paper made with this kind of bamboo curtain is held up to the light, the marks "Shu Jian" and "Dafengtang Made" will appear.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
